Really???
LeMay and policies of the time is why the Navy now controls "most" of the strategic weapons.
The USAF considered strategic weapons as most properly deployed in offense rather than defense.
I'm not talking about tacticals, all major commands have those to use. And I'm not attempting to debate the military or political reasons for the use of strategic weapons.
Times where different in 1960's, hell they where even different in the 1970's but I've never considered strategic nuclear weapons as offensive in nature.
I always figured what started out as tactical would rapidly go strategic anyway, but wtf you either stop them in thier tracks or get rolled over.
The threat of strategic weapons was/is enough to make anyone stop and wonder if it's really worth it.
So while I consider LeMay and his policies as damned dangerous, I do have to grant the fact there were

Actually, most of the vets on WG don't encourage war, especially not of the unprovoked kind.
I can't speak for other worlds ...

Well then u don't know anything about Fearless Blue. The guys on fearless blue would encourage it one for the show and two the two countries r going to buy war stuff from them $$$. I think Fearless Blue was made of pure greed and hatred. I am from FB if you didn't figure it out already.

Boring or stable? WG is actually quite interesting at the moment, and that is nothing to do with
unprovoked war
Every world is characterised by the players in it and players tend to gravitate towards the world that best reflects what they want from the game at any given time.

That'll be why you're playing on FB. I doubt WG would hold much interest for you.

What does attract u to WG vs the other planets
White Giant's grammar schools is what attracted me. Their schooling really prepared for my big day when I posted on this forum for the first time with legible sentences and cohesive thought.
